Police said a man who robbed a nearby check-cashing store ended up hiding in the KFC’s restroom. Alex Smith said, "He took all the money he had in check and whatever and flushed it down our toilet in our men's bathroom and clogged it."

Police said the man tried to flush the stolen cash to get rid of it.

The man was taken into custody, and a plumbing company was called to the scene to help recover the cash.

Police later identified the man as Daron Thomas, 24. He was charged with first-degree robbery and interference with official acts.
